Chris,

You and I keep running into each other in the strangest places!  :)

Actually, I don't find the $32 out of line. I've seen modem cables going for
more than $40 in some catalogs. The Prometheus modem manufacturer sells hard-
ware handshake cables as well, but I don't know their prices. I suspect that
a mail order outfit like MacConnection carries such cables as well.

Cheers!
